Pairs from an earlier Thunderdome can be registered in unworn categories
The app lets you register a pair that was already entered in an earlier Thunderdome into the 2026-27 Open, Work, or Leather Goods Dome. These Domes are for unworn pairs, so the pair shouldn't be offered in the Select item step, and registration should be refused. The Pre-Worn Dome should still accept these pairs.

Sizing won't save when registering a pair
When I register a pair, I get stuck on the sizing step. Tapping Submit Sizing does nothing, so I can't move on.

App shows "Couldn’t confirm your membership" after Stitchdown sign-in
Some users return from Stitchdown sign-in but cannot continue registration. The app shows “Couldn’t confirm your membership” with “Sign in or join to try again.” When they try again, Stitchdown sign-in opens and returns to the app, but the membership check fails again. We’re investigating the issue.
Completed
Some screens forgets what leather your boots are made of
When you are on some screens it forgets what leather your boots are made of and lists it as Unknown Material. It makes you think that you forgot to put the type of leather but then you go back to the overview of your pair and it’s there.

Could not restore purchase on my new phone.
I signed into the app after setting up my phone but was not able to restore my purchase for premium. I had to pay for another premium membership fee to get the features to work properly.
Completed
Email verification times out and blocks account creation
Email verification times out or loses connection, and after the failure the account can no longer be created or verified. The failed verification state blocks signup entirely, preventing access to sign-in-gated support resources. Verification should either succeed reliably or allow retrying without permanently blocking account creation.

Unable to register for Open Dome
I tried several times to register for an Open, but none of my attempts succeeded. Pre-worn and leather goods worked as expected.

Email sign-in link opens app download page on Fairphone 6 running /e/OS
When I select Sign in with email in the Patina Project app, the sign-in email arrives successfully. However, tapping the link opens a browser page with an option to download the app instead of opening the installed app and completing sign-in. This blocks sign-in because I cannot use Google or Facebook sign-in. Environment Device: Fairphone 6 Operating system: Latest /e/OS by Murena Platform: Android-based
Completed
Cannot access help center without signing in
I am unable to request support for sign-in issues because the help center requires signing in from the app.
Completed
Stitchdown Premium Membership shows as expired right after I was charged
My account says my membership has expired, but I was charged for it 2 days ago. I found this while I was pre-registering for the Open dome. After the charge went through, I opened my account and saw that the membership was marked as expired.

Issues logging in
Trying to login to register this year‘s boots and it just keeps putting me in a loop I click login. It brings me to a login screen that pops up. I enter all my information hit login the window drop down and brings me back to the original login screen option.
Completed
"Couldn't register!" error when registering a pair
On the 2026-27 Open Dome pre-registration form, tapping Save and Register produces the error message "Couldn't register! Please contact support." The error appears repeatedly rather than intermittently, indicating a persistent defect in the sign-in or pre-registration path.

Photos on profile fail to load after update
Some photos on the user profile are not viewable after the recent update. The update appears to have broken photo display on the profile page, preventing previously visible images from loading.
Completed
First worn date is incorrect for unworn boots
Submitting photos for pre-registration seems to think I’ve worn my boots when I have not. There is no option to make the boots as unworn or submit as unworn.
In Progress
Restore Purchases not working
I am still subscribed. When I choose restore purchases it says it restored successfully. I then get a screen that says “Thank You for supporting us. Extra features unlocked.” When I go to a photo and choose “Set Photo as Cover” it immediately prompts me to join like it doesn’t recognize my membership at all. From that page I choose “Restore Purchases”. That’s when I get the action was successful followed by the Thank You page. It still will not allow me to choose a new photo cover. I have deleted and reinstalled the app, but I get the same results.
Completed
Unable to load my past posts and several photos missing from other users posts
Gave them a few minutes to load but they will not.
Completed
posting multiple pics
I uploaded 5 pics for one post and they got separated into three posts of 2, 2 and 1 pic. I’ve been noticing this happening but I had thought it was a n00b who didn’t know how to post until it happened to me.
